"Change end source frame" option in Retime Editor ???
Hello Folks,
In page 372 of Diana Weynand's APTS book on FCP X (a Peachpit Book), she said (two first lines) there should be a "Change end source frame" option within the pop-up menu of the Retime Editor when "clicking the triangle next to the speed percentage".
I run 10.0.3 and I have no such offer. Only Slow, Fast and Normal.
How did she get this option ?
I double checked in the Retime Menu from the toolbar, no more luck
So ?
Thanks.
This only works if you have retimed a segment of the clip.

How do you use this?
I want a portion of a clip to extend to a certain time, I know I can use other methods than time warp. But, I want to try various settings that I see related to time warp. The documentation says adjust by source from is for setting a time where a frame is supposed to occur. Great. How do I do that? If I type a frame number into the source frame control, what is it doing? How do I specify that frame occur at a specific time?I figured out how it works. I was confused because the frame is frozen on the keyframe and I hadn't added a keyframe at the end.
I did this:
Enable timewarp and adjust by source frame
Move to frame 0. enable animation. type the inpoint frame number from the footage and press enter.
Move to the frame to adjust. Type the frame it should be moved to and press enter.
Move to the end of the clip. Type the frame number that matches the end of the clip moved by the number of frames the 2nd keyframe was adjusted by.
Thanks. But, I am asking about time warp.
This seems close to giving the answer, because it at least uses source frames:
High quality retiming from 30 to 25 fps using After Effects
But, it involves changing fps. So, I am not able to think of how that would work for me, at the moment.
There are these things:
Frame to move 270
Frame at current desired position 247
Frame at start of selection 226
Maybe some of these are where you set a keyframe:
Keyframe at start
Keyframe at desired position
Keyframe at current position
When I select a clip to add to the composition and then select time warp from effects and select "Adjust time by source frame", the composition panel displays the first frame of the original footage.
The after effects help says that you can click the stopwatch to set a keyframe at "the current time" for that property value. Which current time?
If I click the stopwatch icon in effects controls for the source frame property, it stays selected. How do I indicate that I now want to go to a different location and set a keyframe?
If I knew how to set the keyframes, how would I tell it to now apply the time warp effect?
If I use the animation menu instead, there is an option to set a keyframe at the current source frame. Selecting that toggles the stopwatch icon, leaving me with the same questions.
If I click the triangle next to timewarp field in the composition window that lists clips, I can get at a diamond shaped icon to set key frames. I think I have set 3 keyframes at start, desired position for the end and the current position of the frame I want to occur at that position. Meanwhile the source frame property still says 226. If I scrub the composition windows displays that frame only...
I have no clue what I am supposed to do.
I missed this part of the documentation:
If you choose Source Frame for Adjust Time By, then you must animate the Source Frame property to do anything other than freeze on one frame.
But, so far, I haven't figured out how you animate the source frame. Whatever value I put in it is the frame that is frozen. I don't see how to then add another step in the animation. -
InDesign Text frame options - how to reset?
Working in InDesign CC 2014.
I have somehow set my text frame options so that when I use the type tool to create a text frame, columns are added as I make the box wider.
I know that I want Columns - Fixed number of 1, because I have found the settings I want by opening a new doc and creating a basic text frame and looking at the settings.
In my working doc, when I change the text frame option settings, they will not "stick" and I can only create text frames with columns, and the width increases incrementally.
Only way I can make the basic text frames I want is to copy a basic empty frame from a new doc and paste into my working doc.
How can I get the settings I make to "stick"?
Thanks!Open the Basic Text Frame Object Style, and fix your column settings there. Your new text boxes are based on those settings.

Set top and bottom inset spacing values in Text Frame Options via jsx script
I am looking for a way to set the top and bottom inset spacing values only to 2 points in Text Frame Options via a .jsx scrpt.
For years, I have used a script that sets Preferences, such as:
with(app.storyPreferences){
opticalMarginAlignment = false;
opticalMarginSize = 12; // pts
I would like to add the code to this same script that would make Top = 0p2 and Bottom 0p2 but leave Left and Right as 0p0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.Here is the full .jsx file that we now use to set preferences.
Ideally, this could be modified to include setting any text frame created to have 0p2 inset Top and Bottom, but 0p0 Left and Right:

Change of Video Frame One Sample Out of Sync with Correct Point on Timeline
Change of Video Frame One Sample Out of Sync with Correct Point on Timeline.
It has been found on the author's PC that, in Audition 3 in Multitrack View, a video file displayed in the video window will change its frame one sample later than it should do with respect to the correct point on the timeline. This has led to extra work having to be done by the author, as detailed later.
To demonstrate this issue:
Create a new multitrack session. Enable the Time and Video windows. Enable only 'Snap to Frames'.
Using an external program, render a two-frame video clip at 25fps. Let the first frame contain the letter 'A', and the second frame contain the letter 'B'. Making sure that the Display Time Format is set appropriately, in this case at 'SMPTE 25 fps (EBU)', lock this clip on the multitrack timeline, ensuring that the clip starts at time 00:00:00:00.
Create a mono audio clip of silence at 48kHz 32-bit that is two frames long. Lock it on an audio track, ensuring that the clip starts at time 00:00:00:00.
Place the cursor at time 00:00:00:01 and create a cue marker at this point by pressing F8.
Zoom into the timeline so that approximately twenty samples are visible, with the cursor lying on the cue marker in the middle of the screen. The Time window should display 00:00:00:01. The Video window should display the letter 'A'.
Move the cursor back in time (leftwards) by one sample. The Time window should change its display to 00:00:00:00, whilst the Video window should still show the letter 'A'.
Move the cursor forwards in time (rightwards) by one sample, so that it overlays the cue marker again. The Time window should change its display back to 00:00:00:01, whilst the Video window remains showing the letter 'A'.
Move the cursor forwards in time (rightwards) by one more sample. The Time window's display should remain at 00:00:00:01, but the Video window should now display the letter 'B'.
As can be seen from the above steps, the video's change of frame content occurs incorrectly one sample later than it should; the change of video frame content should occur simultaneously with the change of the frame number displayed in the Time window, which is at the point that the cue marker has been placed.
The practical effect of this issue is that it has caused the author a huge amount of extra work on an 89-minute long soundtrack-for-video timeline. There were over 1100 changes of shot which the author wished to mark by placing cue markers at the beginning of every shot. This should have been a quite simple process of enabling 'Snap to Frames', stepping through the video, and laying cue markers down by pressing F8 when the shot was seen to change.
Because currently the Video window (referencing the cursor laying over a cue marker
i that has been placed on the timeline using the 'Snap to Frames' option
) will actually display the end moments of the previous frame rather than the beginning moments of the current frame, laying down a cue marker when the shot is seen to change will actually place that marker at the beginning moments of the second frame of the new shot, not at the beginning moments of the first frame of the new shot, i.e. the cue marker placed will be one frame later in time than it should be. If it is wished for the cue marker to, as best it can, represent the beginning moments of the first frame of the new shot, it has to be manually repositioned so that it is at least a sample later in time than the time at which the shot has actually changed, in order for the Video window to correctly display the content.
The author had to manually reposition all 1100+ cue markers.
Ideally, the Video window should display a change of video frame in synchronization with the change of the frame display in the Time window, which occurs at the position of the 'Snap to Frames' point.

Hi All,
OWB Config Details is as follows.
OWB ver 9.2 with Windows NT
Oracle 9i.
In near future we are expecting changes in source database i.e. source database from existing will change to a new database which may be same or different.
The level of changes identified are as follows.
Table Name Changes
Column Name Changes
Business Logic Changes
View name changes
I guess there will be changes in other parameter like ip address,sid, dblink ..etc.
I knew in OWB 9.0.2.56 column level changes can be incorporated by re-importing the table & adding,modifying or deleting the column & by selecting in-bound / out-bound reconcillation option in mapping editor. I would like to know is it the same way we need to do in OWB 9.2 version or is there any better way or utility which can ease this task?
As per my knowledge we will need to do it for each & every mapping & in case of business logic change, we will need to recreate the mapping.
Can someone help me in this?
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
VidyanandHi Igor,
You are talking about simplifying matters when there have been changes in the source, and that that is going to be in the release of Q2-2004.
Which release might that be and - since it is already mid september - is it already 'on the market'?
What I'm looking for is an 'easy' way to incorporate changes in source objects in all mapping objects that are not database objects.
So far this has always been a manual job, since only DB-objects can be reconciled. If you have a very big mapping with a lot of objects between source and target DB-object, this has proven to be extremely time-consuming, since all objects have to be opened and the attribute properties of altered columns manually adjusted to the new situation.
Is this wat you are talking about that is going to be greatly improved?
If not, what would be the best approach for these sorts of operations?
Cheers, Patrick

Changing text within frames without adding space at bottom
Anyone know if there's a method for changing text within frames so that the successive text automatically flows into position without creating blank space at bottom of that current or a subsequent frame?
Peter,
You can combine the discussions if you want. I actually deleted a sentence beginning the second discussion explaining that it was related to the first. I thought it might impede the discussion.
Let me describe my problem more completely. I'm adjusting a book that was carefully crafted using frames for each page so that the text extended to the bottom of each page (frame). This often splits text within a paragraph between two pages. This was done so that the customer doesn't feel they are purchasing any blank space and for the aesthetic purpose of filling each page with text. The only exception is the beginning of new chapters or sections.
The problem is that I want to change a word here and there in preexisting paragraphs. When I do, space often one-third the page length is generated at the bottom of a page (frame). To fill that space and extend text to the bottom of the page again requires -given my current understanding of options- selecting the paragraph (beginning on one page and completed on the second) that has become interrupted by the blank space and performing a "keep lines together" option. Unfortunately, this usually generates new blank space on a subsequent page, requiring a new "keep lines together"; in a seemingly unending regress of this procedure.
What I require is a method enabling me to add text within a paragraph that will avoid the generation of the blank space by flowing the subsequent text (composing one or more paragraphs and splitting a paragraph between pages if required) to the end of the page; completely filling the page without requiring any use of "keep options" or whatever.

Retime editor: adjusting keyframe / in-out point
In the retime editor I have created multiple ranges which I can drag around to slow and speed up the clip.
I'm not satisfied with the transition points and want to reposition them. However, dragging the keyframes around of course stretched the content, not the in or out point of the retiming tool. So how do I do this?
Also, can I stabilise only the sped up part that (naturally) is shaky?If anyone could post a dummies step by step guide to what I should be doing here that would be great.
See if this helps:
- Create the gradient (Video Generators/Render/Gradients): this is in the viewer
- Drag the viewer window to the timeline: this creates a clip in the timeline with the new gradient
- Double click the new clip in the timeline: this opens that clip in the viewer - now the viewer shows the clip in the timeline
- Open the Control tab in the viewer
- sh-I moves the playhead to the IN point
- click on the grey diamond on the right of the Start control: this sets the 1st keyframe on the IN point for the start color (black as a default), the diamond button becomes green, and a black diamond appears in the corresponding graph on its right
- sh-O moves the playhead to the OUT point
- click again on the grey diamond on the right of the Start control: this sets the 2nd keyframe on the OUT point for the start color (still black as a default)
- so far you don't see any change; but now suppose you want the start color to be red in place of black at the end of the clip: making sure the playhead is still on the 2nd keyframe (the diamond button is green) click on the black square between Start and the small diamond and change the color to red.
Now if you play the clip you see the first color (Start) gradually changing from black to red (the second color is still white, since we didn't keyframe it)

Does anyone have an idea?hi,
In Map Fields window, there is an option "Match Type".
Please Unchek that option, so that you will be able to see all the fields from that table.
Also, while mapping please verify the datatypes of source and target fields.

Why do my Object, text frame options, inset spacing settings change when I close and open my document.I set my inset spacing to 0.125 an all and when I close the document and open it later it is all set back to 0. Any suggestions? My defalut settings are 0.125
I did this. I open in design but no doc's set inset to .125 and then open a doc and it is set to 0.125. I use it and save it when I open it again it is set at 0. But the pages I created previously are set to 0.125. Could it be something else in a default somewhere?

RFWT0020 withholding tax data - Data Regen vs. Change to Source Tax Code?
Can anyone explain the difference between these two options when running RFWT0020 to update withholding tax data? Data Regeneration vs. Changes to Source Tax Code? I can't find any mention of the two options in the program documentation
When I do test runs with the two different options, the program is selecting difference documents to update. If we are just turning on the 1099 functionality now (beginning with the 2011 tax year), should I run the program once with Regeneration mode and once with Changes to Source Tax Code???
Thanks for any advice!
AllisonHi,
he program enables the withholding tax code to be changed for reconciled and open items with existing withholding tax data. For this, the tax rate of the existing withholding tax data as well as the tax rate of the new withholding tax code must be 0%. The new withholding tax codes are taken from the customer or vendor master data. In the case of extended withholding tax, the withholding tax code is only changed if the related withholding tax categories are the same. The withholding tax base amount is not changed by this procedure.
Recreating or changing the withholding tax data requires that the program first be executed for invoices and then executed for payments in a subsequent step.
When you start the program, the selection screen appears. You can make selections according to vendors, tax code 1, tax code 2 (vendor master record), customers, tax code 1, tax code 2 (customer master record), company codes, document numbers and posting data. The selection determines which items are checked for possible subsequent entries in tables BSEG, BSAK, BSIK, BSAD, BSID, WITH_ITEM.
You can also decide whether only withholding tax data is to be handled for cases where the documents in question contain no withholding tax data. There is no withholding tax data if no withholding tax entries exist for the item selected in table WITH_ITEM (extended withholding tax) or the die withholding tax fields in table BSEG are not filled.
The selection can also be made in test mode. If you do this, no changes are made in the database. You are therefore advised to run the program in test mode initially.

Changing InlineGraphicElement.source when image is still downloading
If I detect that the content of an InlineGraphicElement is too large (either pixels of bytes) I want to stop it downloading and replace it with a different image. I successfully detect the cases when it is too large (listener on InlineGraphicElement.graphic as Loader.contentLoaderInfo).
I can stop the download by directly calling methods on the Loader, but then changing the source never seems to work on the InlineGraphicElement.
If I simply change the source on the InlineGraphicElement - it does not stop the loading of the original image - and then never seems to load the new one - if the original hadn't loaded at the time of the switch.Hi Richard,
I have attached a single class project which has a source change on an InlineGraphicElement.
>One possible workaround would be to set the new source property on the InlineGraphic and then stop the original graphic from loading.
I tried this (not included in the example I attached) - and successfully stopped the downloading - but did not successfully trigger the downloading of the new source. I think it should happen automatically when you change source - even if the original source was still downloading.
>Another might be to remove the InlineGraphicElement and insert a new one
Yes, that is what I ended up doing, but I think it is a clumsy solution.
Thanks,

Changing Data Source for command objects
Hi,
My report (designed in CR 10) is running based on the Stored Procedure call using a command object; which is running successfully in the DEV environment. The report data source connectivity is a DSN.
Now i want to switch it to QA environment with different DSN name. When i tried to update the Change Data Source option, it doesn't allows to update the existing command with a new command!!!!
I don't know how to fix this. Could any one of you have idea, pls. share it here???
Thanks
ViswaIf you have same table structure in new data source then you can change the datasource connection.
Follow the steps in this article
KBase Article ID:c2016958
Article refers to:Crystal Reports 10
Symptom
In Crystal Reports (CR) 10, can you change the database connection of an existing command object to use a different database connection without the use of a Crystal Repository?
Resolution
Yes, you can change the database connection of an existing command object to use a different database connection without the use of a Crystal Repository by using the following steps:
====================
NOTE:
You must apply the CR 10 Monthly Hot Fix (cr10win_en.zip) and the CR 10 Database and Export Drivers Monthly Hot Fix (dbex10win_en.zip) before starting the steps below.
You can download these hot fixes at http://support.businessobjects.com/search
====================
1. Open a report with a command object.
2. Go the 'Database' menu and click 'Set Datasource Location'.
3. In the 'Set Datasource Location' dialog box, select the connection for the command object (the connection appears as a cylinder with a plug).
4. In the lower window, select the new connection and log on to the database.
5. Ensure the connection is highlighted for the command object in the top window, and the connection is highlighted for the new command object in the bottom window.
6. Click Update.
The database connection for the command object now changes to use the new database connection information.
